From ESPN:
"speaking Monday via Zoom conference, Ramsey didn't leave much doubt about what he'd like his role to be: covering star Bengals rookie receiver Ja'Marr Chase."
""Of course, that's what I'm asking for. That's what I want. Whoever you think their best man is, put me on him."
"Earlier in the day, Chase noted Ramsey's size and speed as his greatest strengths, and fellow Bengals wideout Tyler Boyd praised Ramsey, who has earned five Pro Bowl and three All Pro honors since 2017, for those traits and more.
"I think he's definitely probably the best cornerback in the NFL," Boyd said. "He's a great player and he understands his assignments, he understands how to play football and he does a great job of doing that. So, we've got to be at our best -- any one of us -- when we go out there and line up in front of him to figure out ways to win our matchup."
"According to NFL Next Gen Stats, Ramsey's highest shadow rates this season have come since Week 12 and against traditional No. 1 receivers. That includes a season-high 69% against Tampa Bay's Mike Evans in the NFC Divisional Playoffs and 58% against Minnesota's Justin Jefferson in Week 16."
"Sunday's perimeter battles will be strength against strength. Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow led the NFL in QBR on passes outside the numbers and Chase led the league in touchdown catches on such throws. The Rams, meanwhile, allowed the second lowest QBR and fewest touchdown passes on attempts outside the numbers this season."
Ramsey said. "I've been the best in the game for years now, consistently showing greatness week in and week out. "
